Strangers - John Simm (2018) - Sai Yee Street, Mongkok

Some more views from the FEHD Quarters on Sai Yee Street during Episode 5.


But there is also a glimpse inside the flat which confirms that the flat itself was constructed in a studio. Okay, I had already established that the door into their flat was in fact the fire door onto a stairwell, but the various scenes of people going into the flat were done so well it was very convincing. Also, the place was so generously proportioned inside, even if they had used one of these Govt quarters it was still far too large to fit the scene.


The final problem is this view from the living room window. This is actually the view looking south down Tung Choi Street from the Mongkok Road pedestrian bridge. Obviously there are no apartments in this exact location, just the bridge/walkway, so it looks as though the crew must have taken some footage from the bridge and (I guess) they had a large HD television screen behind the window just playing back the footage. It's very convincing either way.

Edit: I was passing the area earlier today (07/03/2019) and popped up to get the same view, so here it is.
